Answer:

small=15 large=40

Step-by-step explanation:

x=large box

y=small box

55 = x + y

 

50x + 55y = 2825

 

50x + 55( 55 - x) = 2825

 

50x + 3025 - 55x = 2825

 

0 = 55x - 50 x + 2825 - 3025

 

0 = 5x - 200

 

200 = 5x

 

x=40

 

y = 15

An airplane spots the floating debris at an angle of depression of 15 degrees. If the plane is at an altitude of 3000. Feet, wha
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

11196.15 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the attached diagram

If the Airplane is at point A and the floating debris at point C, we want to determine the horizontal distance |AB| before they fly over it.

Using trigonometry

Tan \alpha =\frac{Opposite}{adjacent} \\Tan 15 =\frac{3000}{|AB|}

Cross multiply

|AB|X Tan 15 =3000

|AB| = \frac{3000}{Tan 15} =11196.15 km

Therefore, the horizontal distance |AB| before they fly over it is 11196.15 km
